Chapter 603 Intracranial Mercury
"I'll go, aren't these virgins?"

This sentence silenced everyone. Zhou Ning watched the two films carefully, adjusted the direction and rotated, and finally let out a sigh of relief.

"The two deceased, from some details of the skull and ribs, it can be seen that they were malnourished to varying degrees, so the exact age still needs to be checked further. In addition, the humerus, wrist joint, and distal radius all showed signs of damage. This It feels like an injury caused by being bound and hanging for a long time with your hands.”

Fang Dongsheng looked at the loneliness and smiled awkwardly at Zhou Ning.

"I'm a layman, I don't understand."

Da Zhao came over and said with a smile:

"I didn't know how to watch this stuff. In my eyes, black and white movies are the same, but I can find problems after watching too much."

As he said that, Da Zhao found a normal bone film for Fang Dongsheng. After comparing them in this way, he found the difference. Fang Dongsheng nodded in a daze.

"Understood, what shall we do next?"

"The dead man who removed the cocoon was soaked. This one is ready to be dissected. Of course, if the old man Fang Da mentioned before comes, he can tell us to stop and listen at any time. I think this will definitely help the next step."

Fang Dongsheng nodded quickly, and after making arrangements on WeChat, he followed Zhou Ning to the dissection table. Zhu Xingxing's side had already finished preparations, and someone put on a surgical gown for Fang Dongsheng.

After everyone bowed, Da Zhao took pictures first, and then turned on the recording equipment. Zhu Xingxing gave a paperless explanation. Fang Dongsheng next to him was stunned by a long introduction. After all, Zhu Xingxing's memory is too amazing.

Zhou Ning didn't say anything, and had already started the autopsy.

The deceased was a little boy with a very peaceful expression, as if he was asleep, with long eyelashes, closed eyes, and two cut marks on the edge of the palpebral fissure. Seeing this, Zhou Ning's hands froze. .

It seems that, consistent with Zhou Ning's analysis before, before the child was injected with mercury, other parts of the eyes may have been cut off as sacrifices.

I don't know if it's because of the mercury, but even with added water, the dead man's skin looked dark brown.

The wrists and ankles of the deceased were wearing bracelets, but they were now black, and they were pasted on the wrists and ankles. Judging from the texture, they should be made of silver. This thing will naturally turn black when it is contaminated with mercury.

There was knitted fabric on the body of the deceased, but it didn't look like clothes, but a rope around the waist, and a piece of cloth was wrapped around it, only covering the legs.

As for the extremities of the fingers and toes, it seems that these parts were exposed due to the actions of the deceased, so the moisture recovered very well. Although the fingerprints could not be distinguished, some small scratches and scabs could be seen on the fingers.

"Destroy the leg and hand joints of the deceased, and Zhu Xingxing and Gao Tie will collect oral samples from the deceased."

Zhou Ning took a step back, and they hurried forward. The joints that were curled up in several movements had been stretched, but they didn't look smooth, and the nails were cut off. After all, this kind of sampling is the most complete.

Sun Gaotie held up the swab and pinched the mandible of the deceased. It took a long time before he opened it and probed in. However, under the shadowless light, Sun Gaotie trembled and the swab almost fell off. Seeing Zhou Ning looking over, Sun Gaotie Quickly completed the sampling, and then said:

"The sampling of the deceased's mouth has been completed. In the mouth, the teeth are missing, and there is no tongue."

Zhou Ning didn't express much expression, but he could hear the sound of breathing in the huge dissection room.

Raising his eyes and looking around, Zhou Ning quickly closed his mouth one by one, then Zhou Ning waved his hand towards Zou Jialong, adjusted the direction of the shadowless lamp, pulled it down to the position of the deceased's mouth, and tilted his head slightly.

Although the deceased had been replenished with water, it was not a fresh corpse after all, and the movement of the jaw was very low. When you reached in and touched it, it was indeed empty, but you couldn't touch the broken end.

Zhou Ning raised his head. Before he could speak, Zhu Xingxing came over with the endoscope. Zhou Ning manually grabbed one end and stuffed it in. It was already displayed on the screen here. No wonder the broken end could not be seen. It was already curled up in the throat .

As for the teeth, Zhou Ning felt cold when he saw them. On the gums, the eight teeth that could be exposed with a smile in the middle were all pulled out, and the positions of the defects were still very clear. Time is over, perhaps this is the process of sacrifice.

Zhou Ning stabilized his mind and returned the endoscope to Zhu Xingxing. Everyone was still staring at the still picture on the screen, but Zhou Ning walked up to the dead man's head and checked the horizontal incisions on the left and right sides of the eyelids. After all, the incisions were too smooth. flat enough to be ignored.

This made Zhou Ning think that the cut and suture on the top of the deceased's head, the figure 8 suture, is a very professional method, so does it mean that this incision is also done by a professional scalpel, after all, a slightly larger knife here is easy to be placed in other places Leaves cut marks.

Zhou Ning took a deep breath, thinking too much, or take a look.

Two pairs of tweezers pinched the eyelid up and down, and pulled it slightly, but it was not sutured. With force, the eyelid was pulled apart a little bit, and then something popped out directly.

Zhu Xingxing was startled, but the reaction of his hand was very quick. He grabbed the object thrown out by Zhou Ning, and leaned in front of the lamp to observe carefully. When he saw the object clearly, Zhu Xingxing immediately shivered.

"Boss, this is cotton, which has been kneaded into a very hard ball, which can be regarded as a simple filling."

Zhou Ning nodded.

"It seems that we already know that there are three kinds of objects in the four tall porcelain bowls, eyes, tongue, and teeth. The wrong teeth should not be used for this purpose. The four tall porcelain bowls feel soft. s things."

Da Zhao thought for a while and nodded.

"I think it's something like an organ, without teeth, Xiao Qu, look at the picture I uploaded."

Fang Dongsheng still covered his mouth. From the initial fear of screaming out, now it is real fear. When the deceased was not so scary, but examining each part so carefully is a huge test for the heart.

Swallowing a mouthful of saliva, to make my already tense itchy throat feel better, I asked:

"Four plates, these two can be distinguished, so what are the rest?"

At this time, on the big screen, there were four pictures of tall porcelain bowls. After looking at them, they were actually pitch black, and it was impossible to distinguish them at all.

Zhu Xingxing narrowed his eyes, grabbed the laser pointer, pointed at the two plates and said:

"Actually, look at these two pictures, don't they look a bit alike, one is a semicircular deflated ball, and the other is a little more filling than the deflated ball, as if part of the air leaked, and then dried directly into a ball with pits .”

Da Zhao narrowed his eyes and quickly zoomed in on the picture.

"You mean ball?"

Zhou Ning paused, the human body can be said to be about the same size as the eyeball, and there was only one part left. He hurried to the waist of the deceased, cut the rope, and carefully lifted the fig leaf that was placed on the front and back.

Between the empty legs, the middle one is still there, but it is tied by a rope and connected to the rope around the waist. What is the purpose of this is a bit difficult to understand. Under the thing, the cut wound is sprinkled What off-white powder, no special smell.

The powder is similar to incense ash, probably to stop the bleeding. It seems that all the missing tissues on the deceased were completed when he was alive. Not to mention egg cutting, everything here can make people lose consciousness due to pain.

By the way, there is still a craniotomy. Thinking of this, Zhou Ning walked quickly to the head of the deceased, and the Shadowless Lamp quickly adjusted its direction.

"The deceased was forced to complete this series of operations while he was alive. Such pain is not a shaking that can be controlled by human will. I think the deceased was anesthetized first. Of course, this is just a suspicion.

Da Zhao took pictures, Gaotie prepared craniotomy tools, Zhu Xingxing gave me a scalpel and found a curved plate, and waited for me to cut it open and take out the contents. The curved plate should be large. "

After giving the order, Zhou Ning had already bent his knees and crouched above the skull of the deceased. Fang Dongsheng didn't dare to go over this time. If the word craniotomy was placed in a hospital, it would be a process of curing diseases and saving lives. What would be inside at this time?
After all, Zhou Ning had already said before that the reason for the deceased was to keep the body from decaying.

Just when he was distracted, the other side had been completed. Zhu Xingxing held the curved plate, and with quick hands and eyes, he caught the liquid flowing out of it. It was not a large plate as imagined, only less than [-] milliliters of silver-black liquid contained in it. some crumbs.

Zhou Ning raised his head, looked at Sun Gaotie, raised his finger to point at the air outlet, and turned it around a few times. Sun Gaotie hurried over to turn on the switch and adjusted it to the maximum. Xiao Pang and the others also quickly opened the window.

After Zhu Xingxing finished cleaning up, he covered the bending plate, and the few people all gave up holding their breath. After all, they know how powerful this thing is.

"For the record, the incision on the head of the deceased was in a straight line, with a hook imprint in the center, and four circular holes with a diameter of 10.4 mm were opened on the skull, which were hidden on both sides of the incision on the scalp. I personally think that this is not the case. It is only for the convenience of injection, but it is left for suction."

Zhu Xingxing shivered and said eagerly.

"Is this the hole left by the electric drill? If this is the place we guessed, and it is cutting tissue and opening the skull, everything else is easy to say. The hole is very neat and smooth. It is not manually polished and requires an electric drill. , there is no power supply here either?
Moreover, according to the scene, there are a total of eight cocoons. According to our analysis, there are now eight children, four boys and four girls. If you need to make the dead, you have to wash the digestive tract, and then anesthetize, cut organs, punch holes, Mercury poured, stitched, posed, wrapped and hung.

Regardless of whether these are cruel or not, even if it is professional three or four people, it will take more than an hour for one dead person to finish this set, and it will take a day for eight dead people. Going up the ladder, how can these be done in the hole, the rechargeable electric drill is probably only available in the past two years? "
